AC Milan, Inter Milan and Juventus Tickets
Having already “lose” several matches in the past few weeks due to bad weather, Lega Serie A commissioner decided to make a change for some matches for this upcoming week in order to avoid another forced postponing.
The rescheduled games are, As Roma v Inter Milan, Cesena v Catania and Ac Milan v Napoli, who will now be played in the afternoon instead of their previous evening schedule, hoping that the cold weather won’t be troubling yet at an early hour.
Napoli ended Inter Milan’s wonderful winning run in the Italian Cup thanks to two goals from Edinson Cavani, the result automatically puts the Partenopei advancing into the semi final where they’ll meet Siena.
The match also marked the return of the Southern Italian club’s Argentinian forward, Ezequiel Lavezzi, who has been out for quite sometime due to thigh injury, however he still hasn’t found his touches as just yet on the night.
Still sitting in seventh place with 12 points behind the league pace, Napoli’s season obviously looked much more difficult compared to last season and minor voices about their ability to achieve the same result as previous season starts coming.
However, the Partenopei’s patron, Aurelio De Laurentis remains optimistic about his team’s chances in doing great things also this season despite their current inconsistent results in the Serie A.
Napoli failed to maintain their winning streak in week 18 after they stumble into a 1-1 draw against Bologna at San Paolo, there’s was even controversy around the home team’s goal which comes from Edinson Cavani’s spot kick.
The Partenopei obviously disappointed with the result as getting only a point at home is not something encouraging to continue their Scudetto attempt this season considering they have already wasted several points this season, mainly against weaker team.
The top three teams in Serie A, Ac Milan, Juventus and Udinese continue their excellent form in the new year as those three picked up victory against their opponents, keeping things tight at the top of Serie A table.
Just below the top three, the standings didn’t change a lot as well but Lazio’s fourth spot place in under huge pressure as Inter Milan, Napoli and Roma gaining points after picking another victories this weekend.
Experiencing a wonderful year bring plenty of joy for Napoli coach, Walter Mazzarri, who really wants to continue this current path and keep leading his team growing even more in the next year.
Almost leaving the club in the summer, Mazzarri now seems really content at the club and even thinking about becoming a long servant at the Partenopei just like Sir Alex Ferguson did at Manchester United.
Napoli’s right wing back, Christian Maggio, finally has some certainties as his agent, Massimo Briaschi , revealed that his client is set for an extension with the Partenopei.
Although no details have been shared as just yet, Briaschi, is very confident that a new deal will be signed as soon as possible since both parties wanted the same thing.
After facing disappointment in the hands of As Roma last weekend, Napoli run rampant in the midweek as Walter Mazzarri’s team completely demolished Genoa 6-1 at San Paolo.
Meanwhile, at Olympico an uninspiring performance from Lazio earned them only a point against Chievo, something that should be cherished by Edy Reja’s men as they were outplayed by their opponent for the most part of the match.
Napoli are set to acquire another talented South American forward on their squad this winter as Chilean, Eduardo Vargas, will join the likes of Ezequiel Lavezzi, Edinson Cavani and also Mario Santana as part of the clubs attacking players.
The confirmation about the young striker’s arrival was confirmed by Vargas himself, who revealed to the media that he will be joining the Partenopei starting from this January.
A tough task for Italian teams on their Champions League journey, especially for Napoli and Ac Milan who are being paired with two English representatives, Chelsea along with Arsenal, while a much easier draw received by Inter Milan, who faces Marseille.
Obviously playing against two Londoners, will be a difficult task especially for the Rossoneri, who have been having poor results against premiership teams in the competition for last few seasons.
